   Fair question. @SergeyTimofeev1989 answered it on #18608: switching to 
`snapshot` did change something on his tables, just not the side he expected. 
Spark DELETEs mostly stopped failing with `Found conflicting files` while the 
Flink appends kept getting the same 409s. A property that visibly cuts 
conflicts for one writer is easy to read as cutting them generally.
   
   His wording is also better than mine, because it says which side of a 
concurrent commit the property applies to:
   
   > Applies only to the DELETE, UPDATE or MERGE command being committed: it 
controls whether data files added by concurrent commits (including appends) 
count as conflicts. It has no effect on how appends are committed.
   
   Happy to swap that in, or close this if you would rather he carry it.
